Results of learning outcomes
At the end of the course students should have learned the rules that govern the different communication forms (i.e. oral, written and graphic), both to communicate their results and to write a research project. Via a practical test, students will have to demonstrate their competence in oral communication (10 minutes power point presentation about their reserch).

After the completion of the platform lectures, there will be a practical test as follows:
powerpoint presentation of own experimental work in front of the class. This test represents the final exam and participation is mandatory.
The evaluation will take into account the quality of the components of the presentation, including slides quality/coherence of the presentation and communication quality. Scoring will be in 30th, up to 30/30 with laudem.
